Shepparton Race 5 - Shepparton News (250+ Rank)
SMALL MERCIES (8) has a strong winning strike-rate here with two wins and a placing from four tries. Below best last time at Ballarat (25.67) in a T3 RSTW, finishing a 4 length fourth. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. SCOTT MICAH (2) turned spotting a big start finishing sixth (25.88) last time in a Restricted WIN H at this track. Should be about the money. SHAGGY BEAR (1) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing sixth (22.72) last time in a Mix 6/7 at this track. Should be in this for a long way. HUSKY BAILEY (7) is likely to have admirers.

Came from wide draw and finished last over 390m at Ballarat beaten 7 lengths (23.37) behind Fancy Freda in a T3 Grade 7 on March 24. Expect improvement on the latest effort. Great chance to atone.

Finished third at big odds last time (28.70) over 500m at Bendigo. Will need a little luck early from the draw. Deserves respect.

Has struggled to jump cleanly in recent outings and the results have been disappointing, the most recent effort a eighth over 425m at Bendigo. Will be tested in this company.
